Haydn & Schumann inhabit the piano


Details

Nancy Garniez full profile / Solo piano / 1 musician


Full program notes

Haydn, a total original in every respect, invites the piano (and you!) to laugh and to cry, without warning. Schumann, another original, didn't let a single sound get past him unobserved. He, too, dares us. I dare you!


Historical context

Both composers celebrating the piano as a new invention, with sounds as yet unheard and unimagined. My goal in performing is to reinvent that spirit.
